    Growing up in Mexico I can’t expreses you how big was Jeff Hardy over here in the late 00’s. This is considered one of the biggest PPV of all time just for the ending alone over here.

      I agree with this. Here in Colombia, we didn't have local TV networks broadcasting WWE shows but on cable we had Mexican and Costa Rican channels showing even ppv a week later for free. The day hardy won the championship, so many classmates were talking about that. People were really excited about it. Besides, it was the go to character to choose from WWE 200x games

    All I gotta say is the fact that for 5 Weeks in a Row
    - Survivor Series 2004
    - Starrcade 1987
    - Armageddon 1999
    - Starrcade 1996
    - Armageddon 2008
    It was impressive what you did pulling 5 times the duty to give us 5 Straight Weeks of Classic PPV Reviews. It was fun. I’d say make this a Tradition for December if you want.
    Other than that I hope you had a good Christmas & keep doing it for the content in 2023!

      Also though I'll never forget Jeff winning the belt I couldn't have told you before just now who was in the match and I don't remember that angle with Shawn and JBL at all, but then I am getting old.

    YESSS!! I've been waiting so long for this review.
    For an early Christmas present in 2008, my mom surprised me with tickets for this show. We were living at my aunt's house in Niagra Falls, barely had any money, and yet she was still able to scrounge up enough cash to buy tickets for this show. I remember 8 year old me going absolutely bananas when Jeff Hardy won the belt. Me and my mom were jumping up and down hugging each other as his theme played. One of my fondest memories and it's something I will never forget.

    This show brings me huge mixed emotions personally. Jeff Hardy has always been my favorite growing up. Born in '94. I was a Jeff hardy guy, my sister loved Lita, and my mom loved Matt. My father was a stone cold guy, looked just like him as well lol. This was the date my father passed, same year. It happened a couple of hours before Jeff's win, so it just was always odd to me. What a day.

    I think the reason that 08 was such a down year was due to it being a year of change within WWE from the HD sets to the PG Era officially beginning in July of 08. Even as I watched it all unfold at the time all of the changes felt like wiplash.

    I first got into wrestling in 2008. During Covid I decided I would relive that time period by watching each week’s episode of Raw, ECW and Smackdown and each PPV as they came out. I had so much Nostalgia for that time period, but what Brian says about the writing is pretty accurate, mostly after Great American Bash and the programming went PG. I actually gave up before Cyber Sunday because the novelty had worn off and I was so bored. It’s true what they say, you can never go home again.

    This was my absolute favorite ppv of all time. I started watching him when he returned in '06 and was so happy to see him win the big one.

    but Brian, the Christmas Creature DID become a champion and he DID find a job: he is currently the mayor of Knox Tennessee.

    16:30 Aww...Cody looks so young and innocent. Who would believe after getting sent to the principal's office, he'd come back years later with Dustin, Arn, Brandi, 5 golden rings, and partridge in a pear tree?

    I appreciate the Hogan reference, Zane. Even though it felt a bit shoehorned, we need more of them. Thanks👍

    Genuinely the last time I was excited as a wrestling fan. I remember distinctly watching this on my laptop and actually physically counting the 3 as it happened. Was a huge Jeff Hardy fan back in the day
